The procurement exercise aims to select high-quality providers to improve clients' quality of life. The contract will last 3 years with a possible 1-year extension, and the maximum value is £12 million per year. The initiation of this tender will be finalised with the publication of the Invitation to Tender (ITT) in late September - early October 2023, with contract awards expected in early 2024. The framework will be hosted by the Complex Care LD team and is limited to providers selected during the initial tender period. This tender by NCL ICB for Positive Behaviour Support services presents opportunities for service providers in the health and social work services sector. Businesses capable of delivering high-quality PBS services can benefit from participating in this tender, which involves various packages for emergency and planned placements catering to different age groups. The procurement method involves a planned tender stage to establish the provider framework. Interested businesses should ensure alignment with the quality standards set by NCL ICB and be prepared for the competitive process to secure contracts within the framework for individual client placements. ## Notice NHS North Central London Integrated Care Board (NCL ICB) is establishing a framework list of providers to deliver high-quality Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) services. The aim of this framework is to ensure that NCL has a cohort of providers able to deliver effective PBS, which improves outcomes and quality of life for people with a learning disability and behaviours of concern. Effective PBS can lead to improved outcomes, reduced incidents of crisis, decreased use of restraint, fewer breakdowns in community placements and less inappropriate hospital admissions. The framework will implement: * Minimum PBS quality standards and service activities to improve the quality of PBS in the sector * Standardised contract monitoring * A set range of payment rates for PBS packages The framework list will be the mechanism for the call-off of individual packages of care and the award of individual PBS Service User Placement Agreement (SUPA) contracts by NCL ICB. NCL Local Authorities also have the option to commission individual packages of care from this framework list if they choose. NCL Local Authorities will follow their own local procedures for the issuing of contracts related to individual packages of care. ### Lot Information Emergency PBS placements (provision of accommodation and care 18 years +) Emergency PBS placements (provision of accommodation and care 18 years +) Emergency PBS placements (provision of care only, 18 years +) Emergency PBS placements (provision of care only, 18 years +) Planned Placements for young people (16+ years) and adults (18+ years) with a learning disability and behaviours of concern (provision of accommodation and care) Planned Placements for young people (16+ years) and adults (18+ years) with a learning disability and behaviours of concern (provision of accommodation and care) Planned Placements for young people (16+ years) and adults (18+ years) with a learning disability and behaviours of concern (provision of care only) Planned Placements for young people (16+ years) and adults (18+ years) with a learning disability and behaviours of concern (provision of care only) Emergency CYPS PBS placements (provision of care only, no accommodation 0-17 years) Emergency CYPS PBS placements (provision of care only, no accommodation 0-17 years) - Planned Placements CYPS for children with a learning disability and behaviours of concern (provision of care only, no accommodation 0-17 Years) - Planned Placements CYPS for children with a learning disability and behaviours of concern (provision of care only, no accommodation 0-17 Years) Functional Behaviour Assessments, Organisational training and consultation in the delivery of the PBS approach (all ages) Functional Behaviour Assessments, Organisational training and consultation in the delivery of the PBS approach (all ages) ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Find A Tender Service | | Latest notice | https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/025701-2023 | | Notice type | Planning Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Not Specified | | Procurement method details | Not specified | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Planning | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 1 Sep 2023 | | Submission deadline | Not specified | | Future notice date | 1 Oct 2023 | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | Not specified | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £48,000,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Planned | | Lots status | Planned | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | NHS NORTH CENTRAL LONDON ICB | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | North London | | Postcode | N1 1TH | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI4 Inner London - East | | ITL 3 | TLI43 Haringey and Islington | | Local authority | Islington | | Electoral ward | Laycock | | Westminster constituency | Islington South and Finsbury | | Delivery location | TLI London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 85 - Health and social work services ### Codes - 85000000 - Health and social work services ## Release History - 1 Sep 2023 at 08:43 - Planning - Planning Notice - https://www.find-tender.service.gov.uk/Notice/025701-2023 ## Notice URLs - https://nclhealthandcare.org.uk/ ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
